24
Key Finding:
Increased renewable portfolio standards are not necessary to comply at the regional level with recently promulgated federal carbon dioxide emissions regulations, nor are they an element of a regional least cost resource strategy
- Why Increasing RPS Isn’t the Least Cost
Option for Reducing CO2 Emissions
- RPS don’t reduce coal use
- RPS don’t change the fact that the “wind
don’t blow and the sun doesn’t shine all of the time”
- RPS lower the amount of cost-effective energy
efficiency
25
Re so urc e Stra te g y
- Energy Efficiency Development
- 1400 aMW by 2021
- 3000 aMW by 2026
- 4300 aMW by 2035
- Expand Use of Demand Response
- Develop at least 600 MW of demand response resources by 2021
- Natural Gas
- Increase use of existing gas generation to offset coal plant retirements
- While there is a very low probability of regional need for new gas-fired
generation prior to 2021, individual utility circumstances and need for capacity and other ancillary services may dictate development
26
Re so urc e Stra te g y
- Renewable Resources
- Develop local renewable alternatives that are cost-effective now
- Develop solar PV systems to comply with existing renewable portfolio standards,
especially in areas with increasing summer peak loads
- Conduct research on and demonstration of renewable energy with a more
consistent output like geothermal or wave energy
- Carbon Policies
- Support policies that cost effectively achieve state and federal carbon dioxide
emissions reduction goals, while maintaining regional power system adequacy by:
- Develop the energy efficiency and demand response
- Replace retiring coal plants increased use of existing gas-fired generation.
- Dispatch existing regional generation to meet adequacy standards for energy and
capacity rather than to serve external markets
- No increasing the requirements of state renewable portfolio standards alone, since this
would not result in the development of the least cost resource strategy for the region nor the least cost resource strategy for reducing carbon at the regional level.
27
Re so urc e Stra te g y
- Regional Resource Use
- Continue to improve system scheduling and operating procedures across the region’s
balancing authorities to maximize cost-effectiveness and minimize the need for new resources to integrate renewable generation
- Improve use of existing regional resource to meet regional adequacy standards
- Expand Resource Alternatives
- Energy efficiency
- Renewable with less variable output (e.g., enhanced geothermal, wave)
- Adaptive Management
